Taylor Swift, Target partner for exclusive books and albums available in stores only on Black Friday

Taylor Swift and Target are collaborating again, this time on an exclusive book that offers a behind-the-scenes look at the singer's internationally sold-out Eras Tour concerts and a vinyl album of previously digital-only tracks.

The Minneapolis-based retailer will release both products exclusively in stores on the biggest shopping day of the year, Black Friday, on November 29th of this year. According to a press release, the items will be available online through Target's app and website the next day only if supplies last.

The 256-page hardcover, titled “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour Book,” costs $39.99 and contains more than 500 never-before-seen photos of performances, rehearsals, instruments, costumes, sets and designer sketches. It also includes personal reflections and notes written by Swift.

In the release, Swift called the book “the official retrospective of the most wondrous tour” of her career.

The record is the anthology version of Swift's 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, which was released in April. It costs $59.99 and contains 35 tracks, including four bonus acoustic songs. The four marbled and translucent vinyl discs also come with a poster of Swift. There will also be a CD format.

This isn't the first time the mega-retailer and the mega-star have collaborated.

Target has sold more than 10 exclusive versions of Swift's albums, most recently a Phantom Clear vinyl version of the 16-track version of “The Tortured Poets Department” last spring. According to the press release, this set the record for Target's largest music preorder.

“Target is at its best when we create access to joyful experiences, and that's exactly what this represents,” Rick Gomez, executive vice president and chief commercial officer of Target, said in the press release, “a new way for everyone to immerse themselves .” in Taylor’s concert and music, just in time for Christmas.”
